Free offers I remember:
- PC Gamer colors, camo, Monkey
- nVidia Fairy
- Razer Dice
- Alien Head Hangers
- NCIX Centurion-A

I got all but the last, I forget who offered that one and I missed it by 2 days.


i googled all of the above and the results turned up no codes. that nvidia fairy still eludes me (was a facebook thing and im not digging through years of infinite scroll abomination to find it). but i bet that if they did exist, those would have probibly also been shut down as a result of this thread.

If it's possible to make it available again, maybe tie it to a 3068 upgrade of the "Original Eight".

CMD, JNR, HBK, CN9, CPLT, DRG, AWS, AS7.

I'll ask around and see if it's possible. Not sure what the fine print on the Exclusive was.
I can't even pretend to know the fine print at work, but the same pattern was also found on the NCIX Centurion.

I'm sure there can be some valid grumble about fairness given that some people got to have these (now) and others didn't. ;)

Colours... ooh the lovely colours.

Ok, maybe I'm just peeved that I missed it. ;)

Well this an an earlier comment could reopen the Firegates of Hell that opened when PGI asked about allowing Phoenix to be offered again. Phrase it wrong and social media becomes:

None of the codes worked for me. Said they were already redeemed.

Yes. Sorry, My "top men" looked into the issue and it was a bug.
I Originally thought it was a non-unique code so people who didn't have it could still redeem it once.
However, It turned out there was a minor issue in the code that allowed people to redeem it multiple times.
The smoking gun was the someone on Reddit who got himself 15 coconut monkeys.


i thought you needed to at least capture 12 monkeys. then bruce willis will fight you

Pretty sure they deleted all our Coconut Monkeys. I accidentally got three. But now they're all gone. My first one was legit.

No. The ones in the event were found in mech packs and buyable with MC.
